Hey All,
I recently have been trying to setup an NFSv4 share that utilizes Kerberos. My
experience in general with NFS is very slim however I feel like I am very close
to getting this project completed. Currently I have the following things in
place:
1) NFS server nfs.example.net (VM#2) - Running CentOS 5.4 with all of the
latest updates and NFS-related packages
2) Kerberos KDC running on Kerberos.example.net (VM#1) - Running CentOS 5.4
with all of the latest updates
3) NFS client nfs-client.example.net (VM#3) - Running CentOS 5.4 with all of
the latest updates
Before I give you the error message I receive when I enable NFS, I'll first
describe my setup process.
1) Verified Kerberos works on all machines by attempting a kinit testuser
which worked properly.
2) Verified that the clocks on all machines represent the same time
(synced using a local NTP server)
3) Created a service principle for nfs.example.net by performing the
following commands on the nfs.example.net machine: - (Performed on NFS server)
a. kadmin (Logged in as an admin principle)
b. addprinc -randkey nfs/nfs.example.net
c. ktadd -e des-cbc-crc:normal nfs/nfs.example.net
d. quit
e. kinit nfs/nfs.example.net -k -t /etc/krb5.keytab
f. klist to verify
4) Edited /etc/idmapd.conf with the following changes: - (Performed on
NFS server)
a. changed Nobody-{User,Group} to nfsnobody
b. changed Domain to nfs.example.net
5) Mkdir /nfs/ - (Performed on NFS server)
6) Added the following to /etc/exports - (Performed on NFS server)
a. /nfs gss/krb5p(rw,sync,fsid=0)
7) exportfs -rv - (Performed on NFS server)
8) Verified all relevant nfs services were stopped - (Performed on NFS
server)
9) Uncommented and made the following changes to /etc/sysconfig/nfs -
(Performed on NFS server)
a. MOUNTD_NFS_V1="no"
b. MOUNTD_NFS_V2="no"
c. RPCNFSDARGS="-N 2 -N 3 -U"
d. SECURE_NFS = "yes"
10) /etc/init.d/portmap start; /etc/init.d/rpcidmapd start; /etc/init.d/nfs
start - (Performed on NFS server)
11) And I receive the following output when the nfs service starts:
a. Starting RPC svcgssd: FAILED
b. Starting NFS Services: OK
c. Starting NFS quotas: OK
d. Starting NFS daemon: NFSD: Using /var/lib/nfs/v4recovery as the NFSv4
state recovery directory
e. NFSD: starting 90-second grace period
f. Starting NFS mountd: OK
12) I then checked /var/log/messages to find the following log entries:
a. Dec 2 12:16:51 nfs rpc.svcgssd[6018]: ERROR: GSS-API: error in
gss_acquire_cred(): Unspecified GSS failure. Minor code may provide more
information - No principal in keytab matches desired name
b. Dec 2 12:16:51 nfs rpc.svcgssd[6018]: Unable to obtain credentials
for 'nfs'
c. Dec 2 12:16:51 nfs rpc.svcgssd[6018]: unable to obtain root (machine)
credentials
d. Dec 2 12:16:51 nfs rpc.svcgssd[6018]: do you have a keytab entry for
nfs/<your.host>@<YOUR.REALM> in /etc/krb5.keytab?
I seem to be stuck at this point and would appreciate your insight.
Thank you,
Dan
